Herman Jiggle feels like he's different from other kids. His hair is too wild and spikey. His shoes are too slow and clunky. And his teeth don't even wiggle!
He wants to be like everyone else and will try anything to fit in. If that means cementing his hair down with glue, he'll do it. If that means giving up his favorite pair of shoes, he'll do it. He will even try taking out his tooth the hard way if it gives him a hole like the ones his friends have. Before he tries changing himself again, can his loving mom teach Hermie how to love and celebrate his own unique spirit and talents?
